I can aggre on this point with Eyeballed since i loved the lv grind.
It made the game enjoyable because u could always just log in and lv ure favourite jobs.
You was able to meet new people and effectively play with em in a 6 man group.
There was teamplay all the way, every job had its uses and u had something to do,
also there was nothing to hold u back from exploring vana'diel.
Nowadays, u just leech ure job up to 99 like a idiot with a IQ of 10 within few days and then u can hunt
some unnecessary lv 99 gear pieces aka wow style after u've finished ure af gear.
That's what the the game has turned into and it's incredible sad.
And i think they main reason noone is doing old style partys because it's senseless with abyseea out not that it isnt welcome, like eyeballed already said most people who enjoyed the game already left anyway with some coming back sometimes, like me, hoping for a change but i can't see much enjoyable in this game anymore.
I will be glad for clarification if there is content i'm missing who isnt totally senseless and worth the time, where u can play in partys, talk to people, have a challenge with some kind of exploration,progress and just have fun. I think such content has become incredibly rare.
All these resulted useless low lv areas and resulting useless crafts,gear and only a proof to me that SE
1. has got no idea what they are doing to the game or and this is more likely
2. just wants to finish it with some kind of "we have enough of this game, lets just do what we want and see what happens, if it fails, people who dont lke will go to ffxiv anyway and the addicted with no life will stay anyway, lolz" statement
Actually I'm hoping for FFXIV being good but we'll see. I'm hoping for a bright future tough.
